Dear Sir: — - My attention has been called to an article In Thursdays Herald by my oppouent, Mr. A. B. Kates, of Black- shear, In which article ho charges me with circulating report* concerning a mutter between himself and cer tain ol his clients. I n reply I beg to say that I have not circulated any Buck rumor ua 1 know nothing ot the facts, except as I have heard them dlecussod by Interested parlies and other*. In thla discussion htve never heard the name of any except Mr. Bates mentioned and I do not believe his efforts to excite aym- pat hy by referring to my III* Ions, friend Lawton Walker, or bit widow, will divert attention from \hlmislf. An a matter of fact, I know tbnt if Mr. Walker had bad any thing what ever to do with the caae referred to, no crltlcietn whatever or would ever have bee„ made, for he was a man above reproach D every respect nnd the breath of aueplclon has never res ted against him and no one would resent eve n a suggestion against him quicker than I, for I knew him nnd I knew him to be one of God’s noble men. Mr. Estes Is the flret one wbo trios to disturb the memory of n noble men, who le now In hie grays, and that for political purposes too. I resent; this t|ctlon and Condemn him for it. Mr. Estea la entitled to all the com fort be can get out of the letter I wrote him four yeera ego when be was elected to the legislature. At that time t really thought he would make a good representative, hut when he dellberatly went back on the people and fought and voted j against their interests and wlahes, j and supported (Cio liquor Interest* > of Georgia, voting and working a-1 gainst the temperance bill, I realized j that I was mistaken In (he man and: I am now ready to apologize to the people of hla county for having writ- 1 ten the letter. Tho people of hi*, own county refused to endorse him, at the poll* at the succeeding election, j judge Mitchell having been elected j over him. Hla own people thus con demned him and ao do I. I understand that some of bta ad-j berents, n very few, are expecting to spring n surprise on the morning of the 93rd. I desire to warn the yours now that It Is absolutely, untrue ana Is to be done solely to prejudice the Hoke Smith supporters,' A majority of whom are also my eupporlers. Very truly yours, T. A. Puker. Beyond any doubt Monday will bo one of the warmest days, politically speaking, that Ware county has ovor known.
